High-speed digital-to-analog converters (DACs) most often use a transformer-coupled output stage. In applications where this configuration is not practical, a single op amp differential to single-ended stage has often been used. This application note steps through the exact design equations required to achieve gain matching from each output as well as a matched input impedance to each of the DAC current outputs. An example high-speed design is shown in the attached document.
